Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Singh Yadav's chosen or rather hand picked men in khakhi (police force) certainly seem to be setting abysmal and abhorrent policing standards for other police forces to follow........
Sample or then chew on this nugget of information for example; despite urgent; repeated and increasingly agitated sermons by doctors from a Pilibhit government hospital; the station head officer on duty at the time woefully failed in his beholden duty to either present himself or then depute a magistrate who could record the dying declaration of a 17 year old teenager who allegedly consumed poison on Thursday (May 5;2016) morning and passed away within a matter of hours of being admitted to the said hospital without the police recording her dying declaration as per laid down procedures and norms in all such cases........
According to the government hospital's medical superintendent; this was an exact reprisal of a similar case involving a 16 year old minor who had set herself ablaze after being groped and molested by three youths from her neighbourhood less than a fortnight or so ago...........
Continuing with his tirade against the local police who seem to have become a law unto themselves; the irate and incensed doctor in question alludes to the fact that four telephone calls were made to the local kotwali and two peons were even sent to the now infamous police station as the victim was admitted to the hospital in a highly critical state with over 85% burn injuries and her chances of survival were practically non existent at best; but despite the plaintive summons the traumatised and tortured girl breathed her last within 90 minutes or so after reaching the hospital without recording her last testimony thanks to the local police's sheer indifference and callousness........
He further goes on to point out the indisputable fact that the doctors attending on both the deceased minor teenagers audio recorded their dying declarations but wonders whether the same are permissible as evidence under the existing/prevalent laws and also whether any court or judicial magistrate would take due cognisance of the same.........
One can only hope and pray that the judges manning the benches at the state high courts or then district courts take suo moto cognisance of the medical superintendent's statements made in both cases pertaining to the two afore mentioned victims passing away before their dying declarations were duly recorded and condescend to give the senior most police officer on duty at the local police station and others of his ilk the rightful punishment due to them under the relevant and applicable sections of the Indian Penal Code so that the same serves as both an example and deterrent for all those Uttar Pradesh Police officers who believe that doing their political masters bidding is far more significant and important than performing their duties in accordance with the law of the land.......
